Cotham Church is a Gothic Revival style church in Cotham, Bristol, England. Since 1975, it has been a Church of England parish church known as the Church of St Saviour with St Mary or simply as Cotham Parish Church.

Cotham Church was originally built in 1842 and completed in 1843 by William Butterfield. Once built it became Highbury Congregational chapel.

The churches apse, tower, south transept and school were added in 1863 by Edward William Godwin. The large stone low in the enclosing wall along Cotham Road is part of Bewell's Cross, which marked the boundary of the city until the nineteenth century.

It has been designated by English Heritage as a grade II* listed building.

In 1975, the Church of England purchased it. It is now known as the Church of St Saviour with St Mary or simply as Cotham Parish Church. The parish of "Cotham: St. Saviour with St. Mary" is part of a united benefice with St Paul's Church, Clifton, Bristol in the Archdeaconry of Bristol in the Diocese of Bristol. The church stands in the Liberal Catholic tradition of the Church of England.
